GOD DETHRONED

Findest du? Verglichen mit dem schlimmen Swanö-Sound des Vorgängers ist das hier eine Wohltat. Stilistisch gefällt mir der Song ebenfalls.
 
Wusste gar nicht, dass der Vorgänger im Swanö Studio war...Jedenfalls mag ich das schon gern.
Hab "Illumintati" jetzt ein paar mal gehört und ja gefällt mir schon auch, aber mir kams irgendwie glatter vor.
Auf jeden Fall hab ich Bock auf ne neue God Dethroned. War vor gut 12 Jahren meine erste DM Kapelle. =D
 
Neuen Song find ich nicht uninteressant da abwechslungsreich und kaum noch wer sowas in dem Stil zockt. Hör da (aber leider) etwas Vader zu Tibi et igni raus, muss an dem Choralquatsch liegen.
Video ist schön peinlich, aber das waren die GD-Videos eigentlich immer.

Die Ankündigung das sie kaum noch ballern wollen macht mir sehr Angst, ich mochte immer die Pendelei zwischen Raserei und Epik am meisten.
 
Ich find die ja von vorne bis hinten geil.

Ich differenziere da zwar zwischen herausragenden, guten und mittelmäßigen Alben, aber ein gewissses (verglichen mit vielen anderen Bands immer noch sehr hohes)
Qualitätsniveau haben die Holländer auch für mich immer gehalten. GD sind nicht umsonst die Band, von denen ich die zweitmeisten Shirts im Schrank hab.
 
Hier mal noch paar Infos zur neuen Scheibe, bei FB ausgeliehen:

"Freemasons, occultists and conspiracy theory enthusiasts pay attention! God Dethroned is back to smack you in the face with our new album called 'Illuminati' (release date: February 7, 2020). After finishing the World War One trilogy, it was about time to go back to dark side with songs about religion, freemasonry and the occult. Song titles like 'Spirit of Beelzebub', 'Broken Halo', 'Book of Lies' and 'Satan Spawn' leave very little to the imagination as to what to expect from us from a lyrical point of view.

But those of you who expected us to go back into a raging frenzy of endless blastbeats and buzzsaw blade guitar sounds better beware. 'Illuminati' is our most varied album to date with a heavy, yet in-your-face type of production. We managed to make our sound bigger and more orchestral than ever before with the use of both atmospheric keyboard parts and many additional vocal parts such as choirs and grunt-on-tone type of vocals. There is a lot to be discovered in the songs of this album because of the many details hidden in the music that will only reveal itself after many listens, and at the same time the tunes on 'Illuminati' are catchier than ever before.

Lovers of Rhandy Roads-meets-Marty Friedman type of melodic guitar solos should definitely give Dave Meester's spectacular leads a listen. Dave was welcomed to the band's line-up during the European tour with Belphegor and Suffocation and stayed within our ranks ever since. Former guitar player Mike Ferguson however contributed greatly to 'Illuminati' by writing several stunning songs and riffs as well as recording half of all the rhythm tracks on the album. We wish him all the best in his future endeavours."

Langweilt ziemlich vor sich hin.
